The physics list contains the 'standard' electromagnetic processes. 3- AN EVENT : THE PRIMARY GENERATOR The primary kinematic is a single 9 MeV gamma randomly shooted at the middle of the cylinder. 4- VISUALIZATION The Visualization Manager is set in the main(). The initialisation of the drawing is done via the command /vis~/create_view in the macro init.mac. This macro is automatically read from the main in case of interactive running mode. The detector has a default view which is a transversal view of the cylinder. The tracks are drawn at the end of event, and erased at the end of run. Optionaly one can choose to draw all particles, only the charged one, or none. This command is defined in EventActionMessenger class. 5- PHYSICS SURVEY the energy deposited in C6F6 is histogramed (HEP Hist) 6- HOW TO START ? - compile and link to generate an executable % cd examples/extended/electromagnetic/TestEm4 % gmake - execute TestEm4 in 'batch' mode from macro files % TestEm4 run01.mac - execute TestEm4 in 'interactive mode' with visualization % TestEm4 .... Idle> type your commands .... Idle> exit - visualize the histogram paw> h/file 1 testem4.paw paw> option stat paw> option logy paw> h/pl 1 Note that, histograms are disabled via the flag G4NOHIST in the GNUmakefile. Currently, histograms in this example are implemented through the obsolete CLHEP/Hist package, which is no longer supported. The implementation will be replaced by direct call to the "analysis" module in a near future.
